    1. Thanks Carla, I had fun with it. I was SUPER shy/quiet in high school, so this was definitely all in good fun.

    1. I guess, even if the day had 48 hours, I wouldn't get to all the fun I'd love to do.

  9. Pretty sure I'd not be clever enough for this meme (and I probably didn't read enough books in 2024 ;D), but these ARE fun to read! I've seen this list/answers on a couple of blogs and enjoyed them all. :)

  11. This is great, Cindy! I love the books you chose for each question stem. I agree, I had more fun than I thought I would with this post. It took me a few minutes to figure out the right books for each prompt, but it was time worth spent!
